On October 1stCatalonia held a controversial referendum on independence. Before the vote took place, the Spanish Constitutional Courts ruled the vote illegal and sent the national guard to stop it from happening. Despite government opposition, the vote was held and clashes between voters and police ensued.
Ninety percent of the participants voted in favor of independence, but public surveys say that current support for independence in Catalonia is only 41 percent.
Despite the contested referendum results, Catalonia has declared independence unilaterally. In response, Spain is moving to dissolve the Catalan regional government, remove its leaders from office and hold regional elections.

Catalan self-determination referendum, 2014

The citizen participation process on the political future of Catalonia was a non-binding vote on the political future of Catalonia that was held by the Government of Catalonia on 9 November 2014. While also known as the Catalan independence referendum, the vote was rebranded as a "participation process" by the Government of Catalonia, after a "non-referendum popular consultation" on the same topic and for the same date had been suspended by the Constitutional Court of Spain.

The ballot papers carried two questions: "Do you want Catalonia to become a State?" and "Do you want this State to be independent?" The second question could only be answered by those who had answered Yes to the first one.
The Catalan government gave notice on 10 November, the day after voting, that 2,305,290 votes had been cast overall, but it did not provide a percentage figure for the turnout.
Estimates for the turnout as published by the news media ranged from 37.0%, as given in El País, to 41.6% as stated by BBC News. 80.8% of the cast votes supported the Yes-Yes option, 10.1% the Yes-No, 4.5% the No option.

Referendum

A referendum (in some countries synonymous with plebiscite — or a vote on a ballot question) is a direct vote in which an entire electorate is asked to vote on a particular proposal. This may result in the adoption of a new law.

Some definitions of plebiscite suggest that it is a type of vote to change the constitution or government of a country. Others define it as the opposite. Australia defines 'referendum' as a vote to change the constitution and 'plebiscite' as a vote that does not affect the constitution. In contrast, Ireland has only ever held one 'plebiscite' which was the vote to adopt its constitution and each other similar vote has been styled a 'referendum'.

Terminology

Referendum is the gerund of the Latin verb refero, and has the meaning "bringing back" (i.e., bringing the question back to the people). The term plebiscite has a generally similar meaning in modern usage, and comes from the Latin plebiscita, which originally meant a decree of the Concilium Plebis (Plebeian Council), the popular assembly of the Roman Republic. Today, a "referendum" can also often be referred to as a "plebiscite", but in some countries the two terms are used differently to refer to votes with differing types of legal consequences.

BREAKING NEWS: Catalonia Declares Independence - BBC News

The Catalan regional parliament has voted to declare independence from Spain, just as the Spanish government appears set to impose direct rule.
The move was was backed 70-10 in a ballot boycotted by opposition MPs.
Spanish Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy earlier told senators direct rule was needed to return "law, democracy and stability" to Catalonia.
The crisis began when Catalans backed independence in a disputed vote earlier this month.
The Catalan government said that of the 43% who took part in the referendum, 90% were in favour of independence. But Spain's Constitutional Court had ruled the vote illegal.
Spain's Senate is still to vote on whether for the first time to enact Article 155 of the Spanish constitution, which empowers the government to take "all measures necessary to compel" a region in case of a crisis.
It would enable Madrid to fire Catalan leaders, and take control of the region's finances, police and public media.

On October 1st, 2017, the territorial unity of Spain faced a challenge as the Catalan regional government staged its promised and controversial independence referendum. Despite the referendum being “suspended” by Spain’s constitutional court and fiercely opposed by the central government.
Out of a possible 5.3 million voters in the region, 2,262,424 people voted in the referendum for a turnout of 42%. An estimated 770,000 votes were lost due to disruption or seizure by the Spanish police, and 79 of the 2,315 polling stations were closed. With 2,020,144 “YES” votes, or 90% of the total, and 176,565 “NO” votes – the Catalan voters overwhelmingly supported independence.
The regional government previously promised to officially declare independence within 48 hours of the referendum, with the results of the election being sent to the parliament.

Catalonia is an autonomous community of Spain that has been in the news recently after it held an independence referendum on the 1st of October, despite being ruled illegal by the Spanish courts. 4 weeks later, Catalan unilaterally declared their independence from Spain.
In this video I attempt to explain the situation, by first looking at the history of Catalonia and how it became part of Spain, including its modern history and independence movement, right up until the present day. I look at what would an independent Catalonia look like.

On October 1stCatalonia held a controversial referendum on independence. Before the vote took place, the Spanish Constitutional Courts ruled the vote illegal and sent the national guard to stop it from happening. Despite government opposition, the vote was held and clashes between voters and police ensued.
Ninety percent of the participants voted in favor of independence, but public surveys say that current support for independence in Catalonia is only 41 percent.
Despite the contested referendum results, Catalonia has declared independence unilaterally. In response, Spain is moving to dissolve the Catalan regional government, remove its leaders from office and hold regional elections.

The Catalan regional parliament has voted to declare independence from Spain, just as the Spanish government appears set to impose direct rule.
The move was was backed 70-10 in a ballot boycotted by opposition MPs.
Spanish Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy earlier told senators direct rule was needed to return "law, democracy and stability" to Catalonia.
The crisis began when Catalans backed independence in a disputed vote earlier this month.
The Catalan government said that of the 43% who took part in the referendum, 90% were in favour of independence. But Spain's Constitutional Court had ruled the vote illegal.
Spain's Senate is still to vote on whether for the first time to enact Article 155 of the Spanish constitution, which empowers the government to take "all measures necessary to compel" a region in case of a crisis.
It would enable Madrid to fire Catalan leaders, and take control of the region's finances, police and public media.

On October 1st, 2017, the territorial unity of Spain faced a challenge as the Catalan regional government staged its promised and controversial independence referendum. Despite the referendum being “suspended” by Spain’s constitutional court and fiercely opposed by the central government.
Out of a possible 5.3 million voters in the region, 2,262,424 people voted in the referendum for a turnout of 42%. An estimated 770,000 votes were lost due to disruption or seizure by the Spanish police, and 79 of the 2,315 polling stations were closed. With 2,020,144 “YES” votes, or 90% of the total, and 176,565 “NO” votes – the Catalan voters overwhelmingly supported independence.
The regional government previously promised to officially declare independence within 48 hours of the referendum, with the results of the election being sent to the parliament.

Jailed Catalan separatist makes new bid to run for office
MADRID – Lawyers for a prominent Catalan secessionist being held in a Madrid jail have made another request to Spain's Supreme Court for him to be allowed to attend a plenary session in the northeastern region's parliament.
Separatist Catalan lawmakers want a vote on electing Jordi Sanchez as president of Catalonia, but the Supreme Court last week refused to free him.
The appeal filed Monday asks for Sanchez to attend only the parliamentary session, not for his full release from preventive detention while a judge investigates whether he committed crimes related to a court-banned Catalan independence referendum last October.
Separatists are proposing Sanchez in defiance of the Spanish govern...

Catalonia’s president-elect calls on Rajoy to engage in more talks

(15 May 2018) Catalonia's president-elect Quim Torra asked Spanish Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy on Tuesday to talk with the region's separatist leaders, a request the incoming Catalan leader made while visiting his predecessor in Berlin.
Catalan lawmakers in Barcelona elected separatist Torra on Monday to lead the region.
Torra has vowed to build an independent Catalan republic by working under the leadership of former regional PresidentCarles Puigdemont, who is in Germany fighting extradition to Spain.
"Please, Mr. Rajoy, put a date and a place and we will be there," Torra said at a joint news conference with Puigdemont in Berlin.
Rajoy, who has fought relentlessly to deny Catalonia independence, has said he is prepared to meet with Torra and listen to what the Catalan leader has to...

In Spain, Catalonia is still being run by the central government half a year after the autonomous north-eastern region declared independence unilaterally. The leading separatist leaders are either in jail or in self-imposed exile abroad. Spanish courts have charged 25 independence leaders for their role in the October independence referendum that was banned by the constitutional court.
The families of those in custody say they haven't given up their battle for an independent republic and the independence movement is still actively protesting. They demand that their leaders are freed, describing them as "political prisoners". Some activists want to step up their ...

Rajoy denies that the Catalan referendum was financed by Spain's Regional Liquidity Fund

With three of its leaders behind bars, Catalonia has not been able to elect a president. To fix that, the region's parliament has voted to allow politicians who have been arrested or are in exile to stand for elections in absentia. But Spain's central government has the final say, which is threatening the chances for Catalan independence.

Catalonia's October 1 referendum

Why didn't Catalans negotiate a referendum with Spain? Was the referendum illegal? How did the October 1 referendum work? Was it binding? (Feel free to leave other questions in the comments.)

It’s less than 10 days to go for the elections. Parties continue with their campaigns, speculating on future scenarios. Will Spain sit down at the negotiating table if a pro-independence government emerges from the ballots? Will Puigdemont be arrested if he wins and comes back to Catalonia in order to take office as president? Candidates are trying to find an answer to these questions, not always easily. We’ll get you the latest of day 8 of the campaign, and we’ll go to Lleida, the day after the controversial removal of the Sixena works of art.

Jailed Catalan separatist makes new bid to run for office
MADRID – Lawyers for a prominent Catalan secessionist being held in a Madrid jail have made another request to Spain's Supreme Court for him to be allowed to attend a plenary session in the northeastern region's parliament.
Separatist Catalan lawmakers want a vote on electing Jordi Sanchez as president of Catalonia, but the Supreme Court last week refused to free him.
The appeal filed Monday asks for Sanchez to attend only the parliamentary session, not for his full release from preventive detention while a judge investigates whether he committed crimes related to a court-banned Catalan independence referendum last October.
Separatists are proposing Sanchez in defiance of the Spanish government, which argues that anyone facing charges and unable to be present at the debate in Barcelona and vote can't be elected.

(15 May 2018) Catalonia's president-elect Quim Torra asked Spanish Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy on Tuesday to talk with the region's separatist leaders, a request the incoming Catalan leader made while visiting his predecessor in Berlin.
Catalan lawmakers in Barcelona elected separatist Torra on Monday to lead the region.
Torra has vowed to build an independent Catalan republic by working under the leadership of former regional PresidentCarles Puigdemont, who is in Germany fighting extradition to Spain.
"Please, Mr. Rajoy, put a date and a place and we will be there," Torra said at a joint news conference with Puigdemont in Berlin.
Rajoy, who has fought relentlessly to deny Catalonia independence, has said he is prepared to meet with Torra and listen to what the Catalan leader has to say, but reiterated his position that secession is illegal and a non-negotiable issue.
"No (Catalan) independence has happened, no (Catalan) republic has come into being, nor will it," Rajoy said during an official visit to Bulgaria.
He noted that Spain's other two major parties - the Socialists and Citizens - support his governing Popular Party's stance on the issue.
Torra, whose election ended a leadership vacuum of more than five months in Catalonia, said he also wants to visit the separatist leaders being held in Spanish jails over an outlawed independence referendum and illegal declaration of a separate Catalan state.

In Spain, Catalonia is still being run by the central government half a year after the autonomous north-eastern region declared independence unilaterally. The leading separatist leaders are either in jail or in self-imposed exile abroad. Spanish courts have charged 25 independence leaders for their role in the October independence referendum that was banned by the constitutional court.
The families of those in custody say they haven't given up their battle for an independent republic and the independence movement is still actively protesting. They demand that their leaders are freed, describing them as "political prisoners". Some activists want to step up their defiance against the Spanish state. But they know they could face court action if they do.

With three of its leaders behind bars, Catalonia has not been able to elect a president. To fix that, the region's parliament has voted to allow politicians who have been arrested or are in exile to stand for elections in absentia. But Spain's central government has the final say, which is threatening the chances for Catalan independence.

Scuffles erupted between pro-Catalan independence protesters and police officers in central Barcelona, Friday.
Police clashed with protesters at Plaza de Catalunya in Barcelona, who were protesting against the decision of the spanish Supreme Court in remanding several Catalan politicians over their involvement in the failed push for independence last fall.
The demonstrators with Catalan flags and placards reading 'United against repression' marched through the centre, where they faced riot police squads. According to the reports, several protesters were injured.

https://media.ccc.de/v/34c3-9028-internet_censorship_in_the_catalan_referendum
Overview of how the state censored and how it got circumvented
On October 1st the Catalan society held a referendum to decide if they wanted to stay part of the Spanish state or create an independent state. This talk will explain the internet censorship which took place in the weeks before the referendum, on the very same day as well as in the timer after the referendum.
The talk will focus on the methods used by the state to carry out the censorship. These included websites informing about the referendum and information about the polling station each citizen had to use. I will describe how the censorship got circumvented and give an insight in the systems developed to facilitate an easy cloning of the information.
On the day of the referendum it was expected that the Spanish police will close down polling stations. Therefor a global census accessible via internet was introduced which allowed the vote at any polling station. I will describe how this global census was organised to block people from voting twice. I will explain in which different ways the census got attacked by the Spanish state. And of course what we can learn from the state censorship to create more resilient infrastructures.

WHAT HAPPENED IN CATALONIA?
Watch this week's video for a straight-forward run-down of the events surrounding the Catalonian independence vote in October 2017.
I briefly cover off:
- What the relationship is between Catalonia and Spain
- A few reasons which might help to explain why many Catalans want independence
- What happened with the Catalonian IndependenceReferendum
- The aftermath of the Referendum
- How it differs in comparison to the Scottish Referendum in 2014
I hope it helps!
Video recorded in November 2017, apologies if examples/anecdotes seem out of date in future months. Politics moves quick!

On October 1st, 2017, the territorial unity of Spain faced a challenge as the Catalan regional government staged its promised and controversial independence referendum. Despite the referendum being “suspended” by Spain’s constitutional court and fiercely opposed by the central government.
Out of a possible 5.3 million voters in the region, 2,262,424 people voted in the referendum for a turnout of 42%. An estimated 770,000 votes were lost due to disruption or seizure by the Spanish police, and 79 of the 2,315 polling stations...

Why does Catalonia want independence from Spain?

Catalonia’s regional government intends to hold an independence referendum on 1 October. The Spanish government has vowed to stop the vote, which it says is unconstitutional, and the two governments – one in Madrid, one in Barcelona – are now on a collision course.
The independence movement, led by the regional president, Carles Puigdemont, argues that Catalonia has a moral, cultural, economic and political right to self-determination.
Its supporters feel their rich region of 7.5 million people has long put more into Spain than it has received in return.

Should Catalonia be independent from Spain? - The Stream

In the latest twist in a high stakes confrontation between Spain's central government and its prosperous Catalonia region, the government has summoned more than 700 Catalan mayors it says are supporting an attempt to hold an independence referendum. Authorities are seizing ballot boxes and searching print shops accused of producing political material.
Catalonia’s regional government passed a law on September 6th paving the way for an independence vote on October 1st. Spain’s constitutional court, though, swiftly struck it down and called it illegal. Catalan leaders say they will go ahead anyway.
Spain has been here before. In 2014, another planned referendum was scuttled by Madrid, although a symbolic vote went ahead. Though more than 80 percent voted for secession, turnout was low, an...

The Debate - Catalonia Independence Crisis

After the majority of Catalans favored independence, in a referendum, the government in Madrid, led by Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy has said he wanted clarification from Barcelona about the desire for independence or Madrid would clarify it for them. Now the Spanish government says that article 155 of the constitution must be implemented, which means that Madrid will take over the government in Barcelona. Meantime, protesters have taken to the streets of Barcelona denouncing the central government’s response. What is next for Barcelona and Spain?

Many were caught up in clashes that broke out as Spanish riot police tried to prevent them from casting their vote, with police at a Barcelona polling station firing rubber bullets at protesters.

On October 1st, 2017, the territorial unity of Spain faced a challenge as the Catalan regional government staged its promised and controversial independence referendum. Despite the referendum being “suspended” by Spain’s constitutional court and fiercely opposed by the central government.
Out of a possible 5.3 million voters in the region, 2,262,424 people voted in the referendum for a turnout of 42%. An estimated 770,000 votes were lost due to disruption or seizure by the Spanish police, and 79 of the 2,315 polling stations were closed. With 2,020,144 “YES” votes, or 90% of the total, and 176,565 “NO” votes – the Catalan voters overwhelmingly supported independence.
The regional government previously promised to officially declare independence within 48 hours of the referendum, with the results of the election being sent to the parliament.

https://media.ccc.de/v/34c3-9028-internet_censorship_in_the_catalan_referendum
Overview of how the state censored and how it got circumvented
On October 1st the Catalan society held a referendum to decide if they wanted to stay part of the Spanish state or create an independent state. This talk will explain the internet censorship which took place in the weeks before the referendum, on the very same day as well as in the timer after the referendum.
The talk will focus on the methods used by the state to carry out the censorship. These included websites informing about the referendum and information about the polling station each citizen had to use. I will describe how the censorship got circumvented and give an insight in the systems developed to facilitate an easy cloning of the information.
On the day of the referendum it was expected that the Spanish police will close down polling stations. Therefor a global census accessible via internet was introduced which allowed the vote at any polling station. I will describe how this global census was organised to block people from voting twice. I will explain in which different ways the census got attacked by the Spanish state. And of course what we can learn from the state censorship to create more resilient infrastructures.

In Catalonia, November 9th is an historic date; the day in 2014 when the autonomous community voted in a self-organised independence referendum. We meet the "9N" activists who fought to vote for a revolution.
"We vote 'yes' to dignity, 'yes' to independence. And we are happy to vote and proud to be a people who want to talk and want to be heard", says a woman taking part in evening demonstration in Catalonia. For many Catalans this was the turning point in their demand for autonomy. An ineffectual and illegal action to the Spanish state who denied an official referendum, 9N became a focused and peaceful call for independence. For historian Lluis Roura Anlinas, Catalonia's democratic requests have been ignored long enough, so that "anger and revenge could explode at any time". But with results of a landslide vote for independence ignored by the government in Madrid, separation remains elusive. "Spain is showing that it is not able to give answers", says Anlinas.

In the latest twist in a high stakes confrontation between Spain's central government and its prosperous Catalonia region, the government has summoned more than 700 Catalan mayors it says are supporting an attempt to hold an independence referendum.

Catalonia’s regional government passed a law on September 6th paving the way for an independence vote on October 1st. Spain’s constitutional court, though, swiftly struck it down and called it illegal. Catalan leaders say they will go ahead anyway.
Spain has been here before. In 2014, another planned referendum was scuttled by Madrid, although a symbolic vote went ahead. Though more than 80 percent voted for secession, turnout was low, and opinion polls show Catalans almost equally divided on the question.
Afterwards, politicians involved in planning that poll were charged, fined and barred from holding public office.

In the latest twist in a high stakes confrontation between Spain's central government and its prosperous Catalonia region, the government has summoned more than 700 Catalan mayors it says are supporting an attempt to hold an independence referendum. Authorities are seizing ballot boxes and searching print shops accused of producing political material.
Catalonia’s regional government passed a law on September 6th paving the way for an independence vote on October 1st. Spain’s constitutional court, though, swiftly struck it down and called it illegal. Catalan leaders say they will go ahead anyway.
Spain has been here before. In 2014, another planned referendum was scuttled by Madrid, although a symbolic vote went ahead. Though more than 80 percent voted for secession, turnout was low, and opinion polls show Catalans almost equally divided on the question.
Afterwards, politicians involved in planning that poll were charged, fined and barred from holding public office.

LIVEStream: Result Of CatalanIndependenceReferendum 2017 (01-10-17) October 1, 2017.
Sunday, October 1st: The Catalan independence referendum voting result is announced by the Catalonia authority in Barcelona10/1/17. After many obstacle and struggle, catalans voted for their independence today though the central Spanish government deems it illegal ballot.
The regional Government of Catalonia has set a referendum on Catalan independence for 1 October 2017.[1] This referendum was first called for in June 2017 and was approved by the Catalan parliament in a session on 6 September 2017 along with a law which states that independence would be binding with a simple majority, without requiring a minimum turnout.[2] Opposition parties refused to participate in the session and have called on their voters to boycott the vote, except Catalunya Sí que es Pot who abstained but supports participation.[3] The law is illegal according to the Catalan Statutes of autonomy which require a two third majority in the Catalan parliament for any change to Catalonia's status.[4] The referendum itself is also illegal according to the Spanish constitution.[5] It was suspended by the Constitutional Court on 7 September 2017, with the Catalan government stating the court order was not valid for Catalonia and proceeding to gather the support of 750[6] of 948 municipalities of Catalonia,[7][8][9] including a partial support by Barcelona.[10] This led to a constitutional crisis in Spain and started a police operation to stop the referendum.
The Government of Spain opposes any Catalan self-determination referendum,[11][12] because the Spanish Constitution does not allow for a vote on the independence of any Spanish region while also deeming it illegal without its consent;[13][14] an interpretation also favoured by the Catalan Statutory Guarantees Council.[15] On the other hand, the Catalan government invokes the right to self-determination for calling the referendum. So far, the Catalan government has tried but failed to get international support; with the exception of Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela, in particular, Spain’s European partners see Catalonia’s status as a strictly internal matter.[16]
Following a constitutionality check demanded by the Spanish government, the Constitutional Court of Spain annulled the resolution emanated by the Parliament of Catalonia to hold such a vote.[17] The Government of Catalonia, though, maintains that the vote will still be held on 1 October.[1]
The Catalan government had aimed to thwart legal action on behalf of the Spanish government by rushing a referendum law through its own parliament, by simple majority, in September[16] declaring that it would then follow a "Catalan-only" legality (as opposed to the general Spanish one). Spain’s deputy prime minister, Soraya Sáenz de Santamaría, had notified the Catalan government in advance that the state would strike down the referendum law right after it was passed.[16]
According to the Catalan health service, 761 people have been injured in baton charges and forced entries by the Spanish police and the Guardia Civil during raids on polling stations during the referendum.
Pollsters generally started using the proposed referendum question ("Do you want Catalonia to be an independent state in the form of a republic?") after it was revealed in early June 2017.[84]
The Centre for Opinion Studies (Centre d'Estudis d'Opinió, CEO) polled respondents on their intentions rather than asking them the actual referendum question. In its March 2017 poll, aside from asking respondents whether they would want Catalonia to become an independent state, it asked their intents in the event of a referendum on the independence of Catalonia being called and organised by the Generalitat without agreement from the Spanish Government. In a July 2017 poll a similar question was proposed, with the difference that it asked about the actual 1 October referendum.

After the majority of Catalans favored independence, in a referendum, the government in Madrid, led by Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy has said he wanted clarification from Barcelona about the desire for independence or Madrid would clarify it for them. Now the Spanish government says that article 155 of the constitution must be implemented, which means that Madrid will take over the government in Barcelona. Meantime, protesters have taken to the streets of Barcelona denouncing the central government’s response. What is next for Barcelona and Spain?

Catalonia Independence Referendum Explained

Catalonia is an autonomous community of Spain that has been in the news recently after it held an independence referendum on the 1st of October, despite being ruled illegal by the Spanish courts. 4 weeks later, Catalan unilaterally declared their independence from Spain.
In this video I attempt to explain the situation, by first looking at the history of Catalonia and how it became part of Spain, including its modern history and independence movement, right up until the present day. I look at what would an independent Catalonia look like.

Catalan referendum: hundreds injured as police attack protesters

Spanish police in riot gear stormed polling stations to prevent Catalonia’s independence referendum from going ahead on Sunday. Schools housing ballot boxes were raided by the national police. The Catalan president, Carles Puigdemont, told crowds the 'police brutality will shame the Spanish state for ever', while the mayor of Barcelona, Ada Colau, demanded an end to the police actions and called for the resignation of the Spanish prime minister, Mariano Rajoy. Spanish authorities have declared the referendum illegal

Catalonia’s independence movement, explained

This referendum was not the region's first.

On October 1stCatalonia held a controversial referendum on independence. Before the vote took place, the Spanish Constitutional Courts ruled the vote illegal and sent the national guard to stop it from happening. Despite government opposition, the vote was held and clashes between voters and police ensued.
Ninety percent of the participants voted in favor of independence, but public surveys say that current support for independence in Catalonia is only 41 percent.
Despite the contested referendum results, Catalonia has declared independence unilaterally. In response, Spain is moving to dissolve the Catalan regional government, remove its leaders from office and hold regional elections.

BREAKING NEWS: Catalonia Declares Independence - BBC News

The Catalan regional parliament has voted to declare independence from Spain, just as the Spanish government appears set to impose direct rule.
The move was was backed 70-10 in a ballot boycotted by opposition MPs.
Spanish Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy earlier told senators direct rule was needed to return "law, democracy and stability" to Catalonia.
The crisis began when Catalans backed independence in a disputed vote earlier this month.
The Catalan government said that of the 43% who took part in the referendum, 90% were in favour of independence. But Spain's Constitutional Court had ruled the vote illegal.
Spain's Senate is still to vote on whether for the first time to enact Article 155 of the Spanish constitution, which empowers the government to take "all measures necessary to compel" a region in case of a crisis.
It would enable Madrid to fire Catalan leaders, and take control of the region's finances, police and public media.

Catalan self-determination referendum, 2014

The citizen participation process on the political future of Catalonia was a non-binding vote on the political future of Catalonia that was held by the Government of Catalonia on 9 November 2014. While also known as the Catalan independence referendum, the vote was rebranded as a "participation process" by the Government of Catalonia, after a "non-referendum popular consultation" on the same topic and for the same date had been suspended by the Constitutional Court of Spain.

The ballot papers carried two questions: "Do you want Catalonia to become a State?" and "Do you want this State to be independent?" The second question could only be answered by those who had answered Yes to the first one.
The Catalan government gave notice on 10 November, the day after voting, that 2,305,290 votes had been cast overall, but it did not provide a percentage figure for the turnout.
Estimates for the turnout as published by the news media ranged from 37.0%, as given in El País, to 41.6% as stated by BBC News. 80.8% of the cast votes supported the Yes-Yes option, 10.1% the Yes-No, 4.5% the No option.

Jailed Catalan separatist makes new bid to run for office
MADRID – Lawyers for a prominent Catalan secessionist being held in a Madrid jail have made another request to Spain's Supreme Court for him to be allowed to attend a plenary session in the northeastern region's parliament.
Separatist Catalan lawmakers want a vote on electing Jordi Sanchez as president of Catalonia, but the Supreme Court last week refused to free him.
The appeal filed Monday asks for Sanchez to attend only the parliamentary session, not for his full release from preventive detention while a judge investigates whether he committed crimes related to a court-banned Catalan independence referendum last October.
Separatists are proposing Sanchez in defiance of the Spanish government, which argues that anyone facing charges and unable to be present at the debate in Barcelona and vote can't be elected.

Catalonia’s president-elect calls on Rajoy to engage in more talks

(15 May 2018) Catalonia's president-elect Quim Torra asked Spanish Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy on Tuesday to talk with the region's separatist leaders, a request the incoming Catalan leader made while visiting his predecessor in Berlin.
Catalan lawmakers in Barcelona elected separatist Torra on Monday to lead the region.
Torra has vowed to build an independent Catalan republic by working under the leadership of former regional PresidentCarles Puigdemont, who is in Germany fighting extradition to Spain.
"Please, Mr. Rajoy, put a date and a place and we will be there," Torra said at a joint news conference with Puigdemont in Berlin.
Rajoy, who has fought relentlessly to deny Catalonia independence, has said he is prepared to meet with Torra and listen to what the Catalan leader has to say, but reiterated his position that secession is illegal and a non-negotiable issue.
"No (Catalan) independence has happened, no (Catalan) republic has come into being, nor will it," Rajoy said during an official visit to Bulgaria.
He noted that Spain's other two major parties - the Socialists and Citizens - support his governing Popular Party's stance on the issue.
Torra, whose election ended a leadership vacuum of more than five months in Catalonia, said he also wants to visit the separatist leaders being held in Spanish jails over an outlawed independence referendum and illegal declaration of a separate Catalan state.

In Spain, Catalonia is still being run by the central government half a year after the autonomous north-eastern region declared independence unilaterally. The leading separatist leaders are either in jail or in self-imposed exile abroad. Spanish courts have charged 25 independence leaders for their role in the October independence referendum that was banned by the constitutional court.
The families of those in custody say they haven't given up their battle for an independent republic and the independence movement is still actively protesting. They demand that their leaders are freed, describing them as "political prisoners". Some activists want to step up their defiance against the Spanish state. But they know they could face court action if they do.

Rajoy denies that the Catalan referendum was financed by Spain's Regional Liquidity Fund

With three of its leaders behind bars, Catalonia has not been able to elect a president. To fix that, the region's parliament has voted to allow politicians who have been arrested or are in exile to stand for elections in absentia. But Spain's central government has the final say, which is threatening the chances for Catalan independence.

Spain: Catalan independence protesters clash with police in Barcelona

Scuffles erupted between pro-Catalan independence protesters and police officers in central Barcelona, Friday.
Police clashed with protesters at Plaza de Catalunya in Barcelona, who were protesting against the decision of the spanish Supreme Court in remanding several Catalan politicians over their involvement in the failed push for independence last fall.
The demonstrators with Catalan flags and placards reading 'United against repression' marched through the centre, where they faced riot police squads. According to the reports, several protesters were injured.

Behind-the-scenes look at Sky News coverage of Catalan referendum day in October 2017 & th...

https://media.ccc.de/v/34c3-9028-internet_censorship_in_the_catalan_referendum
Overview of how the state censored and how it got circumvented
On October 1st the Catalan society held a referendum to decide if they wanted to stay part of the Spanish state or create an independent state. This talk will explain the internet censorship which took place in the weeks before the referendum, on the very same day as well as in the timer after the referendum.
The talk will focus on the methods used by the state to carry out the censorship. These included websites informing about the referendum and information about the polling station each citizen had to use. I will describe how the censorship got circumvented and give an insight in the systems developed to facilitate an easy cloning of the information.
On the day of the referendum it was expected that the Spanish police will close down polling stations.

On October 1st, 2017, the territorial unity of Spain faced a challenge as the Catalan regional government staged its promised and controversial independence referendum. Despite the referendum being “suspended” by Spain’s constitutional court and fiercely opposed by the central government.
Out of a possible 5.3 million voters in the region, 2,262,424 people voted in the referendum for a turnout of 42%. An estimated 770,000 votes were lost due to disruption or seizure by the Spanish police, and 79 of the 2,315 polling stations were closed. With 2,020,144 “YES” votes, or 90% of the total, and 176,565 “NO” votes – the Catalan voters overwhelmingly supported independence.
The regional government previously promised to officially declare independence within 48 hours of the referendum, with the results of the election being sent to the parliament.

34C3 - Internet censorship in the Catalan referendum

https://media.ccc.de/v/34c3-9028-internet_censorship_in_the_catalan_referendum
Overview of how the state censored and how it got circumvented
On October 1st the Catalan society held a referendum to decide if they wanted to stay part of the Spanish state or create an independent state. This talk will explain the internet censorship which took place in the weeks before the referendum, on the very same day as well as in the timer after the referendum.
The talk will focus on the methods used by the state to carry out the censorship. These included websites informing about the referendum and information about the polling station each citizen had to use. I will describe how the censorship got circumvented and give an insight in the systems developed to facilitate an easy cloning of the information.
On the day of the referendum it was expected that the Spanish police will close down polling stations.

Why does Catalonia want independence from Spain?

Catalonia’s regional government intends to hold an independence referendum on 1 October. The Spanish government has vowed to stop the vote, which it says is unconstitutional, and the two governments – one in Madrid, one in Barcelona – are now on a collision course.
The independence movement, led by the regional president, Carles Puigdemont, argues that Catalonia has a moral, cultural, economic and political right to self-determination.
Its supporters feel their rich region of 7.5 million people has long put more into Spain than it has received in return.

The Debate - Catalonia's independence referendum

Madrid is bracing for rising tensions. Catalonia has decided to make another go at it and push for a separatist drive. It has opted to announce an independence referendum for October. In this edition of the debate, we’ll discuss whether in the post Brexit, Catalonia's pro-independence move will pay off or not, a move strongly opposed by the central government which says it is illegal.

In Catalonia, November 9th is an historic date; the day in 2014 when the autonomous community voted in a self-organised independence referendum. We meet the "9N" activists who fought to vote for a revolution.
"We vote 'yes' to dignity, 'yes' to independence. And we are happy to vote and proud to be a people who want to talk and want to be heard", says a woman taking part in evening demonstration in Catalonia. For many Catalans this was the turning point in their demand for autonomy. An ineffectual and illegal action to the Spanish state who denied an official referendum, 9N became a focused and peaceful call for independence. For historian Lluis Roura Anlinas, Catalonia's democratic requests have been ignored long enough, so that "anger and revenge could explode at any time". But with results of a landslide vote for independence ignored by the government in Madrid, separation remains elusive. "Spain is showing that it is not able to give answers", says Anlinas.

Should Catalonia be independent from Spain? - The Stream

In the latest twist in a high stakes confrontation between Spain's central government and its prosperous Catalonia region, the government has summoned more than 700 Catalan mayors it says are supporting an attempt to hold an independence referendum. Authorities are seizing ballot boxes and searching print shops accused of producing political material.
Catalonia’s regional government passed a law on September 6th paving the way for an independence vote on October 1st. Spain’s constitutional court, though, swiftly struck it down and called it illegal. Catalan leaders say they will go ahead anyway.
Spain has been here before. In 2014, another planned referendum was scuttled by Madrid, although a symbolic vote went ahead. Though more than 80 percent voted for secession, turnout was low, and opinion polls show Catalans almost equally divided on the question.
Afterwards, politicians involved in planning that poll were charged, fined and barred from holding public office.
